Halloween Drink Recipes

The Intoxicologist

Throughout the month of October The Intoxicologist and National Cocktails Examiner features some of the most ghoulish, ghastly and eerily creepy drink recipes from around the spirit world for your sipping pleasure.  Each cocktail plays upon the Halloween theme by name of the drink recipe or by striking the mood of the sinister season by dressing the drink with garnishes such as spiders and bloody vampire teeth. Halloween Drink Guide at The Intoxicologist.

Jack O’Lanterns

Jack O'Lanterns

Our jack-o’-lanterns! Mine on the left, Liz’s two in the middle, and Liz’s sister’s on the right. No, I did not trace a pattern, I only used one for inspiration.

A jack-o’-lantern (sometimes also spelled Jack O’Lantern) is typically a carved pumpkin. It is associated chiefly with the holiday Halloween, and was named after the phenomenon of strange light flickering over peat bogs, called ignis fatuus or jack-o’-lantern. In a jack-o’-lantern, typically the top is cut off, and the inside flesh then scooped out; an image, usually a monstrous face, is carved onto the outside surface, and the lid replaced. At night a light is placed inside to illuminate the effect. The term is not particularly common outside North America, although the practice of carving lanterns for Halloween is. From Wikipedia.
